Hello everyone,
The WAFRO MEDIA TEAM is back at it again with a very interesting dance video for your viewing pleasure. We present you a very unique dance group known as the ATILOGWU DANCE TROOP of SOUTH EAST NIGERIA.
ATILOGWU is from the Igbo ethnic tribe of Nigeria. It is known to be a traditional spirited dances which involves acrobatics and strenuous body movements.
The meaning of Atilogwu is 'has magic'. This is the name given because the youth you perform the dance did it with ease and finesse.
The dance is performed during traditional festivities.
I hope you enjoy the video.

great video and great dances. the steps, attires, sound and settings are top notch. this is the first time of hearing or coming across a dance name Atilogwu. but i didnt get to hear the name of the states where some one can come across this dances and which time or festivals are we likely to come across this dance. it was a great video and the event was greatly and neatly covered. great work by the wafro media and thanks to @wafrica for bring this great video and dance to my notice.
Enugu state, anambra state, and ebonyi state too
Awesome performance. As kids we formed dance groups to perform at our very own end of year celebration. And We performed Atilogwu dance. Funtimes
It really is a beautiful culture
The beat calls out to every Igbo (like me) to exert strength and energy.
I'm glad you put it up here
